The Miami Heat may be the favorites to win the NBA championship, but their star LeBron James is no longer the king of jersey sales.

New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony has dethroned James as the top-selling jersey according to sales at the NBA Store in New York along with NBAStore.com. James was No. 1 from April 2012-Nov. 26, 2012.
